More than half of the AAC receiving votes?

It’s sooooo unfortunate that the out of conference P5 games were lost.

Agreed there were some very winnable games for us and the conference.

Tossing on my green tinted glasses: Navy wins their first 2 games (including over BYU) and Tulane beats SeLA, USM and then Navy. . . Do we get in the top 25 ? I think if Navy makes it into the top 25 it could propel us in with the W week 3. But it’ll be close.
